> Rust has checked multiplication enabled by default in debug builds, and regardless of that the OOB wouldn't be possible.
That bug is only triggered by an unrealistic corner case (username longer than 512MB). Run-time check in debug build won't help unless you realize the possibility before hand and put a unit test for that. I am more interested in the second part of your comment: "the OOB wouldn't be possible". How does rust protect against such integer overflow caused by multiplication? Thanks in advance.
